March Socks DONE

Yippee! They're done! They fit nicely, but can't show that since I can't get my foot up on the scanner! :-) Socks are now residing in the overnight bag, but in a day or two they will be keeping my feet nice & toasty.

March [Bed] Socks Update

Just remember - these are for ME - to wear in bed or under a blanket on the recliner. Yarn: From the Stash, see March 1st post. Hoping I don't run out of the navy before I finish Sock #2 -- thus the stripes.

I see I *could* have [should have, perhaps, but see first sentence above] continued the tan on the heel turn. Oh, well, what the he--.

I'm moving into my difficult patient phase and practicing an irritable attitude. [My coping strategy.] Trying to think positive about the Sunday & Monday preparations - clear liquids both days, 3 doses of magnesium citrate, and that bedtime treat on Monday.

March Sock Report

Decided to quit wishing I had a second pair of bed socks and do something about it. So this pair will be my official SAM3 March Socks - and I have a good start on them.

March Bed Socks details:

For: Me
Yarn: from the stash, Red Heart sport weight, in navy blue and that light brown or tan or whatever it is that I've been trying to use up for several months.
Needles: four - because I don't have a fifth - aluminum [cor, they're cold], size 4
Pattern: generic top down, short cuff, CO 56; k2,p2 rib on cuff/leg and instep; stockinette soles; sl1,k1 type of heel flap.

Because I'm not sure how long the navy blue will last, I'm considering working several tan rounds: a tan row, 2 navy rows, a tan row, 3 navy rows...or something like that. And finish with the toes in tan.
